 by the very means before-mentioned, as well 

 as a Angular cafe of the Jlrangury, by tha 

 horfe's being continued his round in a mill, 

 without permifiion to ilale, notwithftanding his

 prove the indubitable fadl, that fuch inftances 

 occur much more from inattention and negle(3: 

 than the effedl of chance.

 it becomes equally neceffary to introduce a few 

 additional remarks upon cafual inconveniencies 

 that vc^ry ficquently occur, and yet could not 

 poffibly be ranked in any of the particular 

 clafles that conflitute the body of the work; 

 The difagreeable confequences that fomerimes

 ing (by an injudicious or inexperienced pradli- 

 tioner) feem firft entitled to obfervation -, more 

 particularly as inftances arc not wanting of very
